About:
XmlTooling-C is a C++ library that provides a high-level object-oriented interface to XML parsing, signing, and encryption. It builds on low-level libraries like Xerces-C and OpenSSL to simplify secure XML processing. This tool is a core dependency for the OpenSAML project within the Shibboleth ecosystem.
Key Features:
  • Object-oriented C++ interface for XML
  • Support for XML Digital Signatures and Encryption
  • Built on industry-standard libraries (Xerces-C, OpenSSL)
  • Portable across multiple platforms
Use Cases:
  • Developing secure SAML identity provider or service provider components
  • Implementing XML signature verification in C++ applications
  • Parsing and manipulating complex XML configuration files
Alternatives:
  • libxml2 – Lower-level C API; XmlTooling-C provides higher-level abstractions specifically for security standards.
